how to use lemon for dandruff - #22645
I am trying to figure out how to use lemon for dandruff because my scalp has been driving me insane lately. Like, I wake up and there's all this flaky stuff everywhere and it’s super embarrassing, especially when I wear dark shirts. I’ve tried a bunch of shampoos and even some home remedies, but nothing seems to work. I heard that lemon can help with dandruff, but I have no idea how to actually use lemon for dandruff properly. Should I just squeeze the juice straight onto my scalp? Or mix it with something like coconut oil or something? Also, how long do I leave it on there? I'm worried it might make things worse, and I don't want my scalp getting too dry or something. Like, is it really effective for dandruff? I read somewhere that the acidity in lemon can balance the scalp's pH better?? It sounds plausible but do I need to worry about even more flakes, or can lemon really help clear this up? Would love any tips on how to use lemon for dandruff – like, actual instructions or something. Thanks!
